NetCorps gives the opportunity to
participate in a four-to-six month overseas
internship, which includes some time in
Canada. Throughout the internship, participants have
the chance to develop skills that will be essential
to your integration into the job market: you will fine
tune your abilities in information and communication
technologies (ICTs), learn a new language, adapt to new work
situations, and develop skills in teamwork, leadership and
problem solving in different contexts, to name but a few.

an important role to play; they share their knowledge with others at the
same time as they learn a great deal, both personally and professionally.

About NetCorps

launched as part of the federal government's Youth
Employment Strategy, whose aim is to help young Canadians
gain the professional experience they need in order to have
successful careers. The NetCorps program gives young people

invites youth to take part in a unique experience that will put their knowledge
about ICTs to use, while offering to them an exceptional work experience and
providing the chance to discover other countries and cultures.
